We asked them what they think of Kapil Sharma's journey, who has been vocal about his highs and lows and his depression and anger issues. We asked them if they get inspired by him. Archana joked, "We take a lot of money from him. Ab toh wo co-producer ban gaya hai na on Netflix (he's now the co-producer with Netflix for the show)."
The Kuch Kuch Hota Hai star added, "He's an inspiration in so many ways with what he does. I feel that anybody who has been given this job to make people laugh, I think they are an inspiration. All these guys are inspiration." Further in this entertainment news, Archana also revealed how Rajiv Thakur used to ask why she used to give him an 8 on Comedy Circus.
